Two-dimensional and Doppler echocardiography have crucial roles in the detection and assessment of complications of acute myocardial infarction, allowing collection of all necessary information at the bedside. Some of these complications present with suggestive clinical manifestations (e.g., mechanical complications: papillary muscle rupture, myocardial free-wall rupture, pseudoaneurysm, and ventricular septal rupture), whereas others may occur silently (e.g., infarct expansion, thrombi). In both situations, information obtained by echocardiography are often of key importance for decision-making. © 2023 CRC Press.
